The earth-shattering adventure he experienced in the soul-living world that night a hundred years ago still often appears in He Ye's dreams even today, and the appearance of Sister Xia Qiu has not been forgotten by him at all.
The Ape Red Demon has disappeared since being injured by the Demon Alliance jointly used by Xia Qiu and Ouyang Xiaoleng, and Heye has also taken advantage of this time to thrive. As an adult, he is much taller than his father. Although he is physically strong and brave and good at fighting, his simple and kind personality has not changed, and he enjoys a high reputation among the remaining demon spirit tribesmen in Qingliang.
There were two other children in the city who had become the sponsors of the monkey red demon, but because of his disappearance, they grew up smoothly and gradually became healthy. Among them, the girl named Lingdang later became Heye's wife. .
Everyone spent a long time peacefully, and gradually forgot about Onigakure. Unexpectedly, the ghost of the Saru Red Devil appeared again later, and the children of Heye and Lingdang died one after another. Now they are the youngest. A pair of children may also encounter unexpected events at any time.
Heye tried countless times to enter the soul-living world, where he wanted to defeat the Ape Red Demon to save his children, but he never succeeded. He always advised his wife to hold on, sister Xia Qiu, who had saved him, would definitely come back here and take care of their children. A few years ago, he also went to the royal city to inquire whether a human girl contractor appeared, but he always found nothing, so he had to give up. Because he had long known that even leaving Qingyang would not help, he and his wife waited here with peace of mind.
Apart from their family, in these years, only Wang Jue's red-eared demon spirit's family gave birth to a boy named Kui. Unexpectedly, this child was not spared, and suffered a ghost at a young age. Heye originally felt that he and the red-eared demon were in the same boat, so he trusted him extremely and never doubted his words. However, in recent days, he felt more and more that the red-eared demon was deliberately hiding something ulterior from his fellow tribesmen. secret. First, he always mysteriously met with people who came from outside to purchase medicinal herbs. Later, he closed the Seven-tone Gate without consulting the people of his clan.
At first, Heye and his fellow tribesmen didn't know the reason. It wasn't until Wangcheng sent someone to report that they found out that the red-eared demon spirit not only colluded with Qingyun, the biggest enemy in the demon world, but also assisted his subordinate Yasha to sneak attack the Demon King Fox, and also planned to help Qingyun and Qingyun. Wang Cheng was against him, and everything he did was to save his own son Kui. For this reason, he did not hesitate to instigate the Demon Spirit Clan to confront the Royal City, and even attempted to cause a war. Fortunately, Heye persuaded the vast majority of the people in his clan to draw a clear line with him.
Then, the red-eared demon spirit secretly gathered some people to occupy the Wangzi Palace. Heye had tried many ways to lead people to invade the Wangzi Palace, but none of them succeeded. Just when he was at his wits' end, people from the royal city secretly came to Tucheng Qingyang, including the figure he had been looking forward to.
As early as when the intelligence team came to Qingyang City to inquire about information, they were the first to get acquainted with Heyin. They saw that although the old man was from the Demon Spirit Tribe, he had deep feelings for Li's army, which he had served in when he was young. , so I lobbied him to let him secretly assist Demon King Fox and others, and he agreed.
After Xia Qiu, Ouyang Xiaoleng and others arrived at Qingyang, Tucheng, they did not alert anyone else, but met with Heyin first. Heyin recognized Xia Qiu at a glance. He had promised back then that he would repay her kindness for saving his son if we met again, but he didn't expect that he would finally have the opportunity. He violated the rules of the Demon Spirit Clan and told the people from the Royal City in detail about the Seven Sound Gate, and assisted them in opening the Gate of Transformation Palace.
At this moment, he was leading Xia Qiu and Ouyang Xiaoleng to his son Heye's home. Heye's home was only separated from his by a wall. Before he had time to tell them, Heye and his wife Lingdang had lost several children one after another, and now the remaining pair of children had also become the providers of the Aru Red Demon. They have been looking forward to Xia Qiu's arrival, because only she can enter the place called the Soul Rift World and fight the Ape Red Demon.
It was already late at night, and Ling Ding had just coaxed the two children to sleep. They had become very weak after being tortured by Onigakure, and they often had nightmares. They needed their mother to coax them to sleep for a long time every day. Heye had just returned from going outside to discuss with his compatriots how to enter Wangzi Palace. He was sitting alone in the outer room, drinking tea thoughtfully.
Ling Ding came out of the back room and saw him and asked, "What's the result?" Seeing that He Ye just shook his head silently, he had to add some hot water to the teapot and persuaded him, "There will always be a way!"
"How are the children?" Heye asked after coming back from his thoughts.
"Ahem, it's not the same as before!" Lingdang's eyes were filled with tears. It was so painful to see her children die one by one, but she had to bring them into this world in order for the Demon Spirit Tribe to survive. . Ever since she was a child, she had heard her husband talk about the human girl and the demon king fox boy who had saved them. She always had hope in her heart, but her husband had not mentioned it much in recent years. She understood that it was because she had waited so long. It was inevitable that he would be disappointed.
Tuk-tuk-tuk, there was a rapid knock on the door.
"Hinge, open the door!"
When Heye heard his father's voice, he quickly got up and opened the door. I thought that although my father and my mother lived across the wall from me, if it wasn't for something important, he wouldn't have come so late. Recently, I heard my mother say that my father always leaves early and comes back late. I don't know what he is busy with, and he is fine. Opportunity to meet him.
Outside the door, Heye saw two other people standing behind his father. Aren't they the sister Xia Qiu he had longed for? She was even wearing the same clothes she wore when they met more than a hundred years ago, and standing side by side with her was still the elegant and handsome young man in white.
"Sister Xia Qiu!" He called her name tentatively, and as soon as he spoke, he heard his voice trembling in the air.
"Hye!" Xia Qiu can still see the shadow of his childhood on Heye's face.
"How old are you and still call me sister?" Heyin corrected from the side.
"No matter how old she is, she is still my sister!" Heye said firmly, then turned to Xia Qiu, "Come in and sit down, tell me how you ended up with my father?"
"Come over to my place, don't disturb the children!" Heyin suggested.
Upon hearing this, Heye asked his wife to close the door, and he followed his father, Xia Qiu and Ouyang Xiaoleng to the room next door where his father and mother lived. He insisted on sitting next to Xia Qiu and kept holding her hand and refused to let go. Even though so many years had passed, it could be seen that she was still as kind as before. Suddenly he seemed to have returned to his childhood. That happy time.
"Okay, tell me why you guys bumped into each other first?" Heye asked, unable to bear the curiosity in his heart.
"After we rescued you from the Ape Red Demon, it not only changed your destiny but also caused a series of chain reactions, so that a lot of history before today has been rewritten, and many of them are even different from what we remember..." Xia Qiu Some don't know how to explain it so that Heye can understand the logic of the whole thing, because even she herself doesn't know it very well.
Ouyang Xiaoleng continued what she said: "After history was rewritten, Wangcheng met your father when he sent an intelligence team to inquire about the betrayal of the red-eared demon spirit, and got his help. After we sneaked into Qingyang, Tucheng , your father just helped us open five of the seven-sound gates, and after we said goodbye to you in the world a hundred years ago, it is now that we come back here."
His words were obviously more logical than Xia Qiu's. Heye understood the general context of the matter. It turned out that for sister Xia Qiu, it was just parting with him. No wonder he couldn't wait for her news. He was so disappointed in the past. It all disappeared in a moment. Then she suddenly remembered that her appearance now had changed a lot from that time. Worried about scaring her, she suddenly withdrew her hand.
"I heard that Guiyin started again later, and..." Xia Qiu knew that saying this would reveal the scars in Heye's heart, but he had to mention it because this was a problem they urgently needed to solve now.
"Yes, Lingdang, I, and another child were able to grow up safely, which made us think that there would be no ghost ghosts again. Who knew that the ghost of the Saru Red Demon would slow down again after a few years." Hinye mentioned. This name is really sad and angry.
"The son of the red-eared demon spirit became the best provider chosen by the red-eared demon like you back then. It was for this reason that he betrayed the royal city, because as long as the bronze statue of the red-eared demon was destroyed, his The undead finally made Guiyin stop." Ouyang Xiaoleng said.
"Then wouldn't his son also be saved?! And didn't I escape back then?!" He Ye interrupted him.
"Isn't there a black mark on the back of Onigakure's donor? That's where the Saru Red Demon inserted a tube to absorb the life force. He was seriously injured by us before he could insert the tube into you, and the Red Eared Demon Ling's son Kui has been connected to him with a tube. The red-eared demon spirit listened to Qingyun's words. If the ape red demon died, Kui would not be able to survive, so he chose to switch sides in order to obtain the Qi Lie Formation. Let his son coexist with the Red Ape Demon." Ouyang Xiaoleng explained.
"Well, after you seriously injured the Ape Red Demon, the black marks on Lingdang and the others' backs gradually disappeared. I guess they were forcibly disconnected by the move you used at that time, right?" Heye nodded and said. .
He also deeply sympathized with what happened to the red-eared demon spirit, but it was despicable that he would sacrifice the entire demon spirit clan for his own son, and now his two children were also at risk. He suddenly thought of something and stopped immediately. He asked, "If the ape-red demon's undead are destroyed, will my children also die?"
Ouyang Xiaoleng didn't know how to answer for a while, but Xia Qiu's next words reminded him.
"Remember that when we relied on the Demon Alliance to split the Ape Red Devil's shoulder, we also disconnected him from the donor. The position of his left shoulder may be our entry point. We can first connect him with the donor before destroying him. If the pipe connecting them is broken, Heye's children and Kui might all survive!"
"That's right!" Ouyang Xiaoleng cast an approving look.
"Sister Xia Qiu, you are still the same as before, you haven't changed at all!" Heye suddenly said this with a smile, making everyone look at him and listen to him continue, "Even if the red-eared demon spirit betrays Even though he has entered the royal city, you still want to save his son, just like you did when you risked your life to enter the soul-living world to fight against the Ape Red Demon again and again in order to save me, who you met by chance."
"How could it change? For you, that happened more than a hundred years ago, but for me, it seems like a blink of an eye. I will definitely save your children with my companions, just like I saved them then. Just like you." Xia Qiu said with a smile. At this time, the admiration in Heye's eyes made her hallucinate, and the tall Demon Spirit Clan man turned into the eight-year-old boy again.
"There are still Bian Zheng and Shang who have not found a way to open it. What should we do next?" Heyin who had been silent for a long time asked.
